Good Post++
<br>Sorry to hear about your circumstance.<br>
When I was a teen, I started programming to make games.
After a couple of years I decided to take a job at a game company to finance my own endeavors.
Before I took the job I thought, Hmmm.. Will they own the last two years of my life?
I better look this up!
<br><br>
I found "The Software Developer's and Marketer's LEGAL Companion" by Gene K. Landy.
It was a great book with clear explanations. Covered more than I wanted to know.
It came out in 1993 so the web and some of it's issues don't come up but I believe
the book is still highly relevant. It put me in a much better position later on when negotiating with clients and keeping my code mine.
<br><br>
I think everyone who seriously programs should have at least a base understanding of the law as it applies to them. If not, you never know when
you'll get your ass in a sling.
